Hohes Brett
Geography
The Hohes Brett is located near the southwestern end of the Göll massif. To its south lies the Torrener Joch (1,731 m (5,679 ft)), the saddle that separates the Göll massif from the Hagen Mountains. To the southwest, the Jenner stands separate from the main massif. A ridge leads from the summit to the northeast, past the Brettriedel and the Archenköpfe, to the Göllscharte notch, north of which it continues to the Hoher Göll.
Ascent
The Hohes Brett is considered one of the easiest two-thousanders of the Berchtesgaden Alps. The normal route leads from the Torrener Joch through the mountain's steep southern flank. The marked and, in places, secured trail can be done in about 90 minutes by wanderers meeting the basic requirements of high-alpine hiking. The Joch itself can be reached from Schönau am Königssee on the German side or from Golling an der Salzach on the Austrian side, or by taking the cable car to the nearby Jenner.
A much longer and more advanced route begins with taking the Alpeltalsteig trail from Hinterbrand near Schönau to the Göllscharte, optionally taking a detour to the Hoher Göll, and then following the ridge to the Brett. A third, largely unmarked, route also starts at Hinterbrand and takes the direct way past the Brettgabel, approaching the summit from the northwest. Both of these routes lead through trackless, rocky terrain.
